Hi all,
Since this seems to be the place to talk about running gear, I figured I'd share a positive experience I had this winter.
In November I bought myself 2 pairs of Stormsocks from RoadRunnerSports.com. I had always suffered with cold feet in the winter, even when wearing two pairs of socks (sometimes even when I wore 3 pairs of socks).
I tried the storm socks thinking they might help to keep my feet drier and warmer this winter. I have to say I've had very good luck with them. My feet have not been cold this winter, unless I did something very stupid, like ran through a deep puddle and got everything soaked. If I avoided the puddles, I've had warm feet. I've had several runs this winter where I've gone 15+ miles in cold weather (teens or colder), and had no problems with cold feet.
I normally wear a thin pair of socks with a thicker pair of socks over them, and then the storm socks on top of both. It has worked great for me.
They aren't cheap ($22 a pair if I remember right), but they have been worth it to me.
Anyway wanted to share my positive experience with the product so that some of you might be able to benefit from it.
